This isn't chocolate, either

I was tagged. I'm horrible at these...

MY ROCK STAR NAME (first pet and current car): Chicken Chevy
(I'm not going out in the 30 degree weather in my socks to find out what kind of chevy, it's red, OK? And, it was a Road Island Red Rooster if you must know.)
MY WANNABE NAME (favorite ice cream flavor and favorite cookie):
Jamoca Almond Fudge Shortbread (Sounds like a Hollie Hobbie doll)

MY "FLY GIRL" NAME (first initial of first name and first three letters of last name):
FRus. Maiden name was marginally less heinous: FNel- pronounced "fennel"

MY DETECTIVE NAME (favorite color and favorite animal):
Black Cat (It must be my favorite since it is my wardrobe staple - and it all has cat hair on it, so it fits)

MY SOAP OPERA NAME (middle name and the city where you were born):
Lynn Gallatin (say it with a lilt, please - LynnGalla-Tin)

MY STAR WARS NAME (first 3 letters of your last name and first 2 letters of your first name):.. Rusfr (it would be brown and hairy and bowling ball shaped)Once again, Nelfr doesn't get it either.

MY SUPERHERO NAME ("The" and second favorite color and favorite drink):
The Green Coke

MY -cough,cough- ENTERTAINER -cough,cough- NAME (name of your favorite perfume/cologne and favorite candy):
Halston Chocolate Altoid (Her costume would be layers of white and brown)

MY WITNESS PROTECTION NAME (mother's and father's middle names):
Evelyn Burkett
First names would be better, I could be Flo Don (Florence Donald)

Mine are singularly uninspiring and nothing like Reagan's or Beckie's. I tag Lyn and Aaron to come up with more creative pseudonyms!

It isn't chocolate, but it makes you feel good

I'm usually not a fan of the UN, but this was creative and uplifting!

Just so you know...
1/2 t. of jasmine rice = 100 grains
3t. = 1 tablespoon = 600 grains
1/4 c. rice = 4T = 1 serving = 2400 grains of rice

It is slow, but spread the word and we will feed the world!

Read 2, the title says

Wish Blogger had a feature like the old Xanga had where you could tell what you were currently reading or listening to. I'd tell you about the really good read a 13 year old girl recommended Wednesday. I read Jackaroo by Carolyn Voigt. If you see it around, it is worth the time. Written with the young adult/older adolescent in mind, so fairly quick read, but so in my time period.
Next time, CHOCOLATE.
